The Scatto Italiano bicycles developed by design duo Pietro Nicola Coletta and Giuseppe Gurrado take the trademark saying "Made in Italy" to a literal level with this handcrafted traditional Italian bicycle.
These Scatto Italiano bikes were creatively designed using a combination of passed down Italian bicycle traditions learned from local craftsmen. The bike features the iconic 10-speed design with a minimal frame, lightweight body and straight handle bars. All the materials to construct the Scatto Italiano bicycles are also sourced specifically from Italy. For example, the bike's delicate steel frame comes from Antionio Taverna of Vetta located in Padova, Italy. Bikers can enjoy riding their modern Scatto Italiano bikes while embracing rustic and traditional Italian craftsmanship.
